Commercial Humidifiers for Glendale Businesses

Engineered Humidity Control for Glendale Facilities

Commercial humidifiers do more than add moisture — they stabilize the indoor environment so people feel better, equipment runs smoother, and materials stay protected. In Glendale’s dry seasons and air‑conditioned interiors, proper relative humidity helps reduce static discharge, limits particulate resuspension, protects wood, paper, and finishes, and supports comfort and productivity. #1 AC Guys brings 80+ years of engineering experience to deliver stable, code‑aligned humidification for offices, clinics, labs, tech spaces, hospitality, education, worship centers, and light industrial facilities across Los Angeles County.

Systems We Design and Install

We select the right technology for your load, water quality, and control strategy.
• Isothermal steam (electrode and resistance) — precise control, ideal for healthcare, labs, and critical zones.
• Gas‑fired steam — high‑capacity, energy‑efficient for large air handlers and centralized plants.
• Adiabatic (evaporative media, high‑pressure fog) — efficient latent addition when conditions allow, with attention to droplet control and hygiene.
• Ducted and AHU distribution — dispersion manifolds sized for duct velocity and absorption distance.
• Point‑of‑use and zone solutions — for VRF, mini‑split, and DOAS integrations.
• Controls and sensors — strategically placed RH sensors, room and duct monitoring, and alarming.

Smart Controls, BAS Integration, and Safety

Our controls team integrates humidifiers with your building automation system using BACnet or Modbus, enabling setback schedules, demand‑based sequences, lockouts to prevent condensation, and coordination with reheat, economizers, and ventilation. We design for safe operation — proper drain routing, isolation valves, backflow prevention, and water treatment when required — to protect occupants and equipment.

Water Treatment and Air Quality

Water chemistry matters. We evaluate hardness, TDS, and silica to recommend treatment that improves reliability and cleanliness — options include filtration, softening, RO, and blowdown management. Our mission is healthy air for a healthy life: we pair humidification with filtration and ventilation improvements to support comfort and IAQ while aligning with industry best practices.

Design‑Build Process

• Site assessment — load and envelope review, psychrometric targets, and setpoint strategy by space type.
• System selection — steam or adiabatic, capacity sizing, and dispersion analysis for even absorption.
• Coordination — electrical, plumbing, drainage, and condensate management with clear submittals.
• Installation — clean, code‑compliant work with commissioning checklists and operator training.
• Verification — trend monitoring, sensor calibration, and acceptance testing to lock in performance.

Maintenance, Service, and Repairs

Preventative maintenance keeps commercial humidifiers reliable and efficient. We provide seasonal start‑ups and mid‑season checks, cylinder or electrode replacement, scale management, media inspection, drain cleaning, sensor calibration, and control updates. Need fast help in Glendale? Our responsive technicians diagnose issues quickly and stock common parts to minimize downtime.

Compliance and Best Practices

We design to align with ASHRAE guidance and applicable California codes for comfort, ventilation, and energy efficiency. That includes proper absorption distance, condensation prevention, access for service, and hygiene‑forward design for adiabatic systems. Documentation, O&M manuals, and training are included at turnover.

Industries and Applications We Support

• Offices and corporate campuses — consistent comfort and static control.
• Healthcare, dental, and clinics — stable RH to support patient comfort and sensitive equipment needs.
• Laboratories and tech spaces — tighter tolerances for processes and instrumentation.
• Data centers and IT rooms — static mitigation and environmental stability.
• Manufacturing, print, and woodwork — protect materials and maintain dimensional stability.
• Museums, houses of worship, and education — safeguard artifacts and finishes while improving comfort.
• Hospitality and retail — guest experience and product preservation.
